World Horse Welfare has taken in a group of horses from the remote Scottish island of Islay after their owners were struggling to care for them due to the economic climate and poor health, the decision to remove the horses was a preventative measure to ensure the horses did not become serious welfare cases. Once these horses have been fully rehabilitated, they will be rehomed through our Rehome a Horse Scheme find out more bit.ly/rjzZZs
Thrilled that the family cared enough to make the call for help. Horses could have been in much, much poorer condition.
At least the owner's knew there was a problem and cared enough to take action rather than letting the ponies starve.
The owners did the RIGHT thing..bless them, they tried.
Can you guys please do an after video of some of these horses?
I LOVE THIS CHARITY!
I love how gentle and caring they are to the ponies. Well done.
I think world horse welfare is an amazing place and I love how they help horses that have been neglected and hurt and egnored
i love the way they say "ponies" ^.^
These owners didn't wait until the ponies were skin and bones before calling. This is what other horse owners should do before their animals' condition is a problem.
Well done to be preventative and proactive. The ponies were very nicely handled as well. Well done!
yeah when i am older i am going to adopt a horse from here
At school we are talking about charities and I'm going to show them this video and some others
thank you world horse welfare you do a awesome job
love this! Thank you all so much!
My only wish is that the owners would’ve called sooner. I’m SO glad they called though
What a wonderful organization,
It is good to know that there is a place for horses to get a second chance :D
I watch shows like these and I'm always happy when people save animals like you guys😊🐴
Thank you so much for helping the horses! I can't stand seeing them like this. It's to sad! How would the owners feal like if some left them and didn't treat them good!
It’s sad but they made the right choice in asking for help 🤗🤗
About the millionth confirmation that I need a horse. :') lovely babies
Very interesting video, totally different "landscape" circumstances compared to here in Holland.
Keep up with the great work!
A lot of barns, rescue centers etc, have a safety policy that helmets and protective gear must be worn at all times when working with and around the horses. It doesn't exactly mean that they are riding it is just policy. I know it seems really goofy, but safety rules are in place for a reason no matter how strange. LOL
So sad how they end up really poorly 😓
An harmed horse may not be too trusting to humans. I for example allways wear protection when handeling a new horse or a cow for example. It's a security issue.
you did a great job guys of the helpning team ! GOOD JOB MAN !!!!
It's still a safety thing :) Horses can be unpredictable, and if you don't know a horse you can't be sure of how they will act around you. Where I learnt to ride you have to wear a helmet whenever you're with the horses, whether that be in the stable, the paddocks or the arena. It's a measure of safety in case you get nocked over or an accident happens that the helmet may be able to help with
they have to wear them because they dont know how the horses will react so its more for safety incase anything happens..i know alot of people who wear hats untill they get to know a horse fully :) xx
Very calm, sweet and affectionate ponies. How are they doing and did they found good homes?
I think that they got rehomed :) I've visited Belwade Farm many times and haven't seen them so I'm presuming they found good homes :)
I can't understand him half the time. I'm sorry. Great people though! Love what they do. Wish they had more current videos.
Great job 👍🏻
Its for safety.
@malfoy1988 it's probably health and safety cuz they don't know how the horses will react so they're just protecting themselves from any harm
I think that A. its to do with the fact that when hearding horses, especially mistreated or wild ones, there is quite a high chance that they will kick out at you in fear and kick your head, hense its essential to load any horse in hat, gloves (to stop them ripping your hands once you have caught one) and boots (to stop them breaking your foot when they tread on you) - its all in the pony club manual :p..... and B. that health and safety like it !
It's called safety reasons, most of us common horse people don't understand that. ;)
How are they doing? I Hope that theyre all well! xoxo
The horses they rescue have been neglected so severely that they would have trouble trusting humans around them, therefore would be very anxious and flighty. I imagine it's a safety precaution, and a very reasonable one at that.
They have to for health and safety (stupidley), though it does kinda make sense when many of the horses are wild/unpredictable/afraid, just removes some risk...
People especially at riding schools sometimes wear riding helmets while handling horses for safety
i know a lady who always wears helmets around horses. she was kicked in the head but she survived. so now she always wears helmets for safety.
I think that the volunteers are wearing helmets because they are handling horses that are either super stressed and frightened or horses that have been in stalls for up to 6 months. Either of those situations can easily cause a horse to feel the need to kick out whether from fear or excitement. Not so silly when you figure in everything that most of these lovely rescues has been through:)
That is so sad
I was wondering that too... I'm assuming they are just being safe around unpredictable horses.
@malfoy1988 it's a safety precaution, we use them at the school I'm at when we're handling new horses incase they decide to knock us over, a few of us have been kicked in the head when picking out their feet but the hats stopped our skulls smashing
It might be for safety or insurance reasons. After all, most of these horses are half wild when they get them :)
It's standard practice to wear a helmet when doing anything with a horse--riding, ground work, catching etc. This is especially true when you don't know the horses. I once had a friend who was kicked in the head by a spooking horse. Luckily she had her helmet, or she might be suffering from brain damage. She only ended up with a concussion
I want to rehome some of their ponies... However, I'm only 14, live in the US and my family doesn't have the room or money to hold them.
just in case one of the horses kick out. Safety regulations really! :)
If only I could get a pony shipped to Tennessee😩😩
Please show us the ponies condition after proper care - leaving us in suspense is cruelty to humans!
I think it’s wonderful the market gave them their facilities to use, but I worry about what those facilities are ACTUALLY used for regularly
The ponies look fairly well fed but very dirty and need some coat care. The hooves look pretty good too.They need some serious bathing and brushing. Can't tell about their teeth.
What we're the ponies licking?
how many ponies in total where there
Ponies actually in very good condition, just a little dirty. Rain scald -- you mean winter coat.
que bonito
♤♡
What exactly is that market for?
Hi, what was the Scottish SPCA Inspector there for?
Yes they did at least they didn’t let them suffer like other horses 🐴 that we’ve seen so I admire the owners for that animal abusers should take note
I would assume that because the horses may be unpredictable, the helmets are for safety reasons. Sick and horses in pain may lash out and kick etc I assume.
Do you know what breed the horses are x
😍
I think they are doing a really great job by helping all those horses. But after watching a few of their videos I started wondering about one thing. Why are there always women running around with helmets. I mean they aren't riding them since most of them are in a bad condition... I don't know anybody who is wearing one, just while handling horses. They wear them only while riding their horse. That includes me. ;-) Oh boy, I think I am thinking too much...
maybe because half the horses they rescue are half feral and can act unpredictably? they are being cautious.
A lot of people who are handling "wild" horses will often wear helmets for protection, should the horse bash into them and knock them on the ground, into a wall, or etc.
Weldon word horse
like if your Canadian!
why the hell do they always wear helmets??
They were the helmets case the horse is to kick and they were to fall back it would stop them hitting there head harder
ciaran kelly yeah or if they were kicked in the head
lucyandtheworld x you don't know me but I read this and all I can say is you are right what if they were to hit there head on segment because they tree or they were kicked and then he more thing, LOL!
You don't know the horses all that well. You might have one that could rear and strike your head, or knock you over. If you know the horse then its different.
Can't understand the accent :(
Just appalling
